Anyone connect a late 2013 Mac Pro to this monitor? does it work? Look good?

I did. See my review. With the Accell cable mentioned in the review, it is working really good here at my place. It is only rarely that I have to switch off and on the monitor but never any other kind of wake up issues that existed before with other cables I tested.

Yes, works great! Can get glitchy on start up but you just have to turn off and on and it catches...but the resolution is just like a Retina and much better than a Thunderbolt display.

It does work with my late 2013 Mac Pro but it has a problem waking from sleep. It needs a firmware update or something. I actually have to unplug the monitor and plug it back in to get it to wake up.

I have one here for that purpose but have not had time to connect them. I have run a Mac Mini into the Dell and it looks fine except for some issues in the top menu bar. Take a look at the article on the diglloyd blog (Lloyd Chambers is a noted photo reviewer and mac guy) where he tests this exact set up and gives it two big thumbs up as well as set up instructions which are pretty much plug and play.I assume from this that the MacBook has a better graphics card then the Mini.Anyway I just did a 2 second fire it up test to see and yes the image came right up and the menu bar was perfect.

No - I have a new Mac Pro, and it provides the sound - not the Dell 4k monitor

For what it's worth I have had no problems with sound from the mini display port to display port or a DVI cable coming through the 2013 new Mac Pro.

How about thunderbolt to HDMI from macbook pro 13" retina to the Asus? Mine doesn't work :(

Yes, it is. If you have a pre-HDMI port MacBook, make you sure you pick up a Mini DisplayPort adapter: HDMI, DVI, or VGA (your choice). I use this display with my early-2011 MacBook Pro 13".

No it is not a thunderbolt display. You are simply using the displayport2 protocol to send display info to the monitor. You will need to use another wire to send USB, and in my experience so far that does not work. It's a great display once you tell OSX how to display colors, out of the box it's going to look fuzzy and distorted - don't worry, it's just a command prompt configuration setting to fix.

Dirk. I know nothing about the MAC...I'm a PC user and I can't find the paperwork that came with the monitor so I can look up the spec info you need, so I really don't have a clue if it is compatible with a MAC or not. Why wouldn't it be? Maybe if you check online with Samsung with this model number, that might give you your answer. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I am using it with a 2011 mac mini. Purchased the cheapest mini display port to display port cable on Amazon and it worked without any effort. I imagine you have already tried going in system preferences then Displays to see if it shows up. Wish I could help more.

YES! I run my mac book pro with Mini DisplayPort out (mini DisplayPort works in the Thunderbolt jack) to the dual link converter from Apple. It works great and I get full resolution. You will need this adapter and a dual link DVI cable (I think the Crossover monitor comes with the DVI cable). Apple Mini MB571Z/A DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter There is also a less expensive adapter version from Monoprice that should work but I have not tested on my Mac.

It worked with my son's 2013 Mac Pro using a display port to mini display port cable, so I assume it will also work with a 2014. If you still want to be sure, I will try it with my wife's 2014 mac Pro.

I have an Apple MacBook Pro 13" Retina 2013 and connect to this monitor usint MiniDisplay Port. It works great with no issue. This monitor displays the best color among all monitors I have. The image is so vivid and real, best for photography. I highly recommend it.

The monitor works well on a Macbook Pro ---- HOWEVER, you will lose your ability to control the volume settings from your keyboard if you choose to use the built-in HDMI audio. If you know of any work-around for this, please let me know.

I am going to guess you are looking for great color reproduction since you are using a Mac. If that is the case I won't I advise you to buy this monitor because although it is a great monitor and performs really well(price to performance ratio) the color reproduction is not that good and the colors look a bit faded, not as bright or crisp as you would want it to be. Hope this answers your question.

I don't have a Mac Pro, but I looked up the ports. It looks like the Pro does not have an HDMI port. However, if your TV has a computer connection, you could get an adapter for your DVI output and connect to the TV using a regular monitor cable. You would also have to run a cable for sound from the computer's headphone or speaker port.

I just returned my HP Envy 27-inch monitor to Amazon. I too have a 2012 MacBook Pro (13") and attempted to hook it up to the monitor via HDMI (adapted from thunderbolt? - not the mini video port of old). The picture was horrible, fonts were unreadable. A 90-minute call to HP support revealed that they have no driver support for Mac and all the fiddling with the settings on the Mac did not solve the problem. Oddly, I have my MacBook Pro hooked up to an older HP 23" monitor via HDMI and it works like a charm. Not sure what the difference is between the two monitors, but there it is.

We use this with a 2012 macbook pro that has an intel HD 4000 graphics card (same as the latest mac mini's) and it works fine. I believe you would only have issues if you tried to use it in conjunction with a second monitor. As a solo monitor it should be fine. You will however probably want a mini display port to display port adapter cable. That has worked well for us.

I don't have much experience with Mac products, but i did find this link for you. https://discussions.apple.com/message/22067174?tstart=0 If you get a DVI converter, make sure it supports Dual Link DVI, as it will not work otherwise.
